_________________________I used to think it was terrible that life was unfair. Then I thought what if life were fair and all of the terrible things that happen came because we really deserved them? Now I take comfort in the general unfairness and hostility of the universe.

Yes unfortunately, there have been doctored images circulating but this still cannot alter the fact that violence is a senseless way to attempt reaching a peace. <br><br>It is not a case of who is right and who is wrong = apart from the fact that two wrongs cannot make a right.<br><br>Hezbollah are wrong to use violence. There is no excuse for their violence<br><br>Israel are wrong to use violence. There is no excuse for their violence.<br><br>If they want to stop the killing, they have to learn to share the resources.<br><br>

Resources? You think this is about resources?! This is just the latest installment in a conflict that that goes back thousands of years. It's about religion. It's about ideology. It's about philosophy. It's about birthrights for chrissake! And it's about land — as in Homeland. As wonderful as it would be, you don't just call "TIME!" and bring a thousands-year-old debate to a dead stop. Doesn't matter what you say (or what you want). Israel ain't listening. Hezbollah ain't listening. Iran ain't listening... <br><br>We're talking about a part of the world where every nation, state, and man is looking out for their own interests. Period. Because if you let your guard down for a nano second, you are toast! It's been that way since before biblical times. And it'll be that way for a very very long time. No one's suggesting you resign yourself to that fact. But you would do well to accept it and understand it. At the very least, it'll help you manage your own expectations.<br><br>

Right. <br><br>Anyways, <br><br>The '3000 years of conflict' is an Israeli thing to justify the creation of the<br>state of Israel in 1948. Oh the long list of empires that have invaded their<br>homeland!<br><br>On the other hand,<br><br>Hezbollah, formed in 1982, is not biblical in nature. Hezbollah's nature is to defend<br>Lebanon from foreign invasion and instill Islamic values and rule in Lebanon.<br>And finally, they don't recognized the state of Israel.<br><br>The idea of denying the existence of Israel (created in 1948) and it's desire to form a Islamic Republic<br>(an idea that maybe dates back to 1947*) doesn't jive with your "they have<br>been fighting for 1000's of years" explanation. Those are modern day ideas, not biblical.<br><br>These ideas of Islamic Republics or Islamic Revolution were born from<br>the desire to be free from modern western world influence and corruption.<br>We, the western world, created the problems in the middle east in the first<br>place, this is their revolution. Only we don't accept their 'revolution' as being<br>anything but a bunch of terrorists.<br><br><br>Dress it up anyway you want, but Hezbollah and Israel have been in conflict<br>since 1982.<br><br>* formation of Pakistan.<br><br>[color:red]Allez Cuisine!
